Default Re: What seeds have germinated for you?

So far:

Ensete ventricosum (no problem, but some batches just won't go)
Ensete superbum (easy! sprouts like weed)
Ensete sp. (Thai) (nothing)
Ensete perrierii (nothing)
Ensete glaucum (poorly)

Musa sikkimensis (poorly)
Musa velutina (very fluctiating, but overall not good)
Musa cheesmani (nothing)
Musa ornata (nothing, but old seeds)
Musa itinerans (nothing)
Musa thompsonii (nothing)

My next problem is to get small plants of Ensete superbum and E. ventricosum through the winter, they are about 50 -60 cm high (planthight) now,...how do I do that? Warm and light, or just cold (5 deg) and dry like big ones?
